💬 HUMAN PERSPECTIVE / МОИ МЫСЛИ (УНИКАЛЬНЫЙ ОТЗЫВ)

RU (Мои мысли): Абсолютный жемчужный сборник для всех ценителей японского грува, вайод-диско и фанка конца 70-х. Лейбл Columbia проделал монументальную работу, откопав в архивах такие сокровища, как коллаборации Ryuichi Sakamoto с Kazumi Watanabe, драйвовые инструменталы Jiro Inagaki & Soul Media и зажигательные поп-диско гимны. Звучит невероятно стильно, чисто и объемно в lossless-формате.

EN (DJ Review): A holy grail compilation for collectors of Japanese rare groove, disco, and fusion. Sourced directly from Columbia’s late-70s vaults, this release bridges sleek studio production, heavy bass-driven funk, and infectious dancefloor energy. From Ryuichi Sakamoto’s precision arrangements to Jiro Inagaki’s masterclass brass work, this is elite listening for discerning selectors.
